At leadership level
Under the EUPTD the burden of proof sits with the employer. Anyone who cannot document pay differences objectively cannot justify them in court.
The EU Pay Transparency Directive turns pay equity into a duty of proof. Claritava delivers analysis, documentation and reporting on one platform.

“In over a decade of HR consulting, executive teams and HR departments always ran into the same problems: pay structures that grew historically, no consistent job architecture, data sitting in three systems. That is exactly what Claritava solves.”
What many organisations are experiencing right now
The EU Pay Transparency Directive has applied since 7 June 2026. From 250 employees the first report is due by 7 June 2027 and annually thereafter; from 150 employees also from 2027 and every three years after that. German implementing legislation is still pending.
Under the EUPTD the burden of proof sits with the employer. Anyone who cannot document pay differences objectively cannot justify them in court.
An external pay gap analysis costs EUR 50,000 to 200,000. Ongoing documentation and information requests are not included.
Analyse pay structures, justify gaps, produce reports. Usually alongside day-to-day operations, with the same resources as before.
Your path with Claritava
What consulting projects charge EUR 50,000 to 200,000 a year for, your own team does, with clear guidance and a complete audit trail.
Claritava connects to your HRIS or imports CSV and Excel. The AI recognises your column format, grades every role across 11 factors and sorts it into a clean job architecture.
The pay equity dashboard shows where pay differences exist and why. Claritava separates explainable factors such as experience or working hours from the unexplained gaps and proposes an action for each.
Reports are generated with one click, run through your approval workflow and are digitally signed. Article 7 information requests arrive through a public portal in the HR mailbox.
